And YHWH spoke to Mosheh, 'Go to Pharaoh and say to him, 'Thus said YHWH, 'Let My people go, so that they serve Me.

'But if you refuse to let them go, see, I am smiting all your border with frogs.

'And the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and shall come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading bowls,

And the magicians did so with their magic, and brought up frogs on the land of Mitsrayim.

Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, 'Pray to YHWH to take away the frogs from me and from my people, and I shall let the people go to slaughter to YHWH.'

And Mosheh said to Pharaoh, 'Explain yourself to me: When am I to pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your houses, and remain only in the river?'

And when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not listen to them, as YHWH had said.

The Plague of Gnats...

And YHWH said to Mosheh, `Say to Aharon, `Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it becomes gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim.``

And they did so, and Aharon stretched out his hand with his rod and struck the dust of the earth, and it became gnats on man and beast. All the dust of the land became gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim.

The Plague of Flies...

And YHWH said to Mosheh, `Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh as he comes out to the water, and say to him, `Thus said YHWH, `Let My people go, so that they serve Me.

'Or else, if you do not let My people go, see, I am sending swarms of flies on you and your servants, and on your people and into your houses. And the houses of the Mitsrites shall be filled with swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand.

And YHWH did so, and thick swarms of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Mitsrayim, and the land was ruined because of the swarms of flies.

Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, 'Go, slaughter to your Elohim in the land.'

And Mosheh said, 'It is not right to do so, for we would be slaughtering the abomination of the Mitsrites to YHWH our Elohim. See, if we slaughter the abomination of the Mitsrites before their eyes, would they not stone us?

'Let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, then we shall slaughter to YHWH our Elohim, as He commands us.'

And Pharaoh said, `I am letting you go, then you shall slaughter to YHWH your Elohim in the wilderness. Only, do not go very far away! Pray for me.`

And Mosheh said, 'See, when I leave you I shall pray to YHWH, and tomorrow the swarms of flies shall depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. But do not let Pharaoh again deceive, not to let the people go to slaughter to YHWH.'
